Re: NKJV vs NASB
Just remember, the NKJV along with every other English Bible out there is a TRANSLATION of the early Greek manuscripts that we have. Even then, there are TWO main bodies of early Greek manuscripts, the Byzantine and the Alexanderian manuscripts which differ in some places.
Remember, we do NOT have the original manuscripts that were written by the Apostles. We have only copies of copies of copies...Perhaps someday we may find the originals but until then, there is the science of 'Textual criticism.
If you are interested, check out a couple of books on the subject: 'How We got the Bible' by Neil Lightfoot and 'Searching for the Original Bible' by Randall Price. These are two easily readable books that give you a lot of info on the 'evolution' of the Bible.
Does God 'need' us? No. BUT, God wants us.
What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou visitest him? Psalm 8:4
